The Garden City News (8/26/22) by Litmor Publishing

At their August 18th meeting, members of the Garden City Board of Trustees pressed the Mayor’s Committee on St. Paul’s to work towards creating a timeline that will ultimately culminate in a village-wide vote on the future of St. Paul’s.

BY MEG MORGAN NORRIS

Trustee Bruce Torino said that he understands the difficulty of putting together a report because of the large amount of information that needs to be gathered. He said he is “disinclined to impose a date on others” but would like the committee to propose a date.

The Mayor’s Committee was formed earlier this year, and consists of 38 residents who are working on subcommittees to gather informa tion on all facets of possible future plans for the building.

In response, Village Trustee Mary Carter Flanagan commented, “I do not disrespect the committee’s 38 members. I feel gratitude to every one of you for taking on this challenging and important task. I appreci ate that each one of you like myself care deeply about our village and are contributing your time and energy to the village.”

Prior to the Board meeting, committee members learned that some members of the Board wanted to set a date for residents to vote on November 19th, which caused consternation.

However, she added, “I think it would be irresponsible for us as a board to leave tonight’s meeting without at least setting a deadline to receive information, so we can set about going through that informa tion and drafting a ballot as well as compiling all of the relevant infor mation that needs to go out to residents so they have everything needed to cast an educated vote on this important issue.”

Trustee Tom O’Brien said that the committee needs to get financial

Residents at the Board of Trustees meeting also weighed in. Kathleen Sweeney said that residents are waiting with bated breath, and it is critical that residents be given enough time to understand the options before voting. She said people are especially interested in the financial impacts of the proposals.

At its meeting on Thursday August 18, the Garden City Board of Trustees approved a new contract of $94,750 with consulting firm Creighton Manning Engineering of Ossining, New York, to prepare a Traffic Calming Satellite Study. This approval stems from a request by the vil lage’s Traffic Commission after months of evaluations. Creighton Manning actively participated in discussions with the Commission on the viability of village-wide traf fic studies leading up to the August 18 board approval. In order to fund the contract with Creighton Manning, the board also authorized a transfer of bud geted funds in the amount

30 years. We need more time. What difference does waiting another sever al months make? Obviously, I do not buy this point of view. What a chaotic shame!

The Board wasn’t wrong to start ask ing the St. Paul’s Committee to work out a timeline for future events. There had been an understanding earlier this year that a vote might take place in the fall. That seems like it’s not going to hap pen because it has been difficult to get construction cost estimates. The public understands that sometimes things take longer than expected. But having at least a target date set would help keep things on track, even if it needs to be amended later.

Y I want to subscribe to A WORD FROM THE PUBLISHER St. Paul’s Timeline There is some discussion in several letters to the editor this week about the Garden City Board of Trustees’ promise to hold a vote on the St. Paul’s property. During their campaigns to be elect ed to the Board, members of the For a Better Garden City group promised that they would finally resolve the St. Paul’s conundrum and would adhere to the will of the people. The term “refer endum” was used, although as it turns out that may have been a poor choice of words.According to Village Counsel Gary Fishberg, state law precludes village boards from holding binding “referen dums” except for very limited reasons. Boards may not cede their authority to make decisions such as the one that will have to be made about St. Paul’s. While it’s true that the board legally could decide to ignore a public vote on St. Paul’s, we trust that the members of the board will be true to their promises and do what the public wants.

No progress To the Editor: In early-2022, Mayor Veneziale appointed 34 volunteer residents to evaluate the pros and cons of demol ishing or saving the St. Paul’s building (via reconstruction and re-use of the interior). At the time of the appoint ments he set a goal of a binding refer endum of GC residents to take place “around Thanksgiving” 2022, to once and for all, bring a successful ending to 30-years of indecision by all past Boards of Trustees. The nomenclature was per vasive and unchallenged: the vote was to be a “referendum” and “binding” on the current Board to obey and execute the people’s mandate. No one spoke up about the legality of the planned vote -- until August 17th. On the official agenda for the August 18th B o T meeting was an item called “Community Vote” on the St. Paul’s Building. Absent was the word “ref erendum.” I asked incoming Village Counsel, Gary Fishberg, to comment on my confusion. Here are his opinions: 1) The upcoming vote is NOT a ref erendum and should not be referred to as such. The vote will be simply an “opinion poll” since it does not meet the criteria to be a referendum; and 2) therefore, the outcome cannot be bind ing on our Furthermore,Trustees.atthe Board Meeting, they debated and could not arrive at a date for the postponed vote. (Trustee Flanagan had suggested November 19th.) And gone was the Mayor’s late-November objective. I would guess we will not see a residents’ vote until well into 2023. So, as things stand now... there is no vote date, there are no formal proposals for use from the pro-preservation St .Paul’s sub-committee, no estimates of cost to demolish, or develop, no esti mate as to increased Village taxes, per household, to finance a project. NO NOTHING!Simplystated we are back to “squareone.” The stated attitude of the pro-pres ervationists is: “We have already waited

George M. Salem Will consider all options

To the Editor: In response to the letters, emails, rhetoric and cacophony of opinions on what this Board of Trustees should do with the “Main Building” at St. Paul’s may I respond simply without favor nor regret.Iwill examine all the proposals placed before the Board, and in accor dance with my oath of office examine all the information presented. None of us are prescient, and thus only when an item is on the Board’s agenda will I consider the options offered. My vote on the agenda item will be solely on what in my judgment is the best option for the village. This vote will be not only for this generation but also for those gener ations who may live here in the future. We all recognize the issue of what to do with the “Main Building” has been unresolved since the 1993 pur chase of the St. Paul’s property. The Village residents and each succeeding Board of Trustees has struggled to come to a resolution on the fate or use of the building. The fields, Cluett Hall and the Field house were immediately put to good use in furtherance of village objectives. However, for 30 years, like the Albatross in the Ancient Mariner, it has hung around our collective necks weighing heavily and tearing at the fab ric LikeVillage.many I have debated the fate of the building. During my first tenure as Village Trustee during 1997-2001 options on what to do with the building were advanced. Years were spent developing plans yet none gained sufficient traction to be implemented. Decades have passed and at the direction of Mayor Veneziale another group has sought to address this issue.

“We have waited patiently for the perfect location and are so happy to have found it on Seventh Street, in the heart of Garden City,” said Vouvoudakis. “Being able to share our largest, most stunning location yet with the insanely supportive Garden City community has made all of the hard work worth it.”

“We were best friends since third grade, who ventured into the special ty coffee roasting and wholesale busi ness together,” said Vouvoudakis. “We started in wholesale, selling our roasted beans to restaurants and other wholesale accounts before tak ing the plunge and opening our first café in Manhattan in 2016.” Their brand has taken off over the past five years, and currently there are 35 locations now open nation wide.Tracy Imhof, VP of marketing for For Five Roasters, said what makes the coffee chain unique from other chains like Starbucks and Dunkin Donuts is the hospitality aspect and the unique aesthetic appeal of each shop.“I think what really separates us from the other coffee purveyors is our elevated experience of hospital ity to our customers and our unique brand element and architectural design,” said Imhof.

For Five, a premium coffee house, opened on Seventh Street last week.

Stefanos Vouvoudakis, presi dent and co-founder of Four Five Roasters, said that he and his part ner, Tom Tsiplakos, were actively looking to open a second location on Long Island and that Garden City was the perfect spot.

For Five Roasters was originally founded in Queens in 2010 by the two longtime best friends, who each shared a passion of wanting to intro duce specialty coffee from the heart of New York to the rest of the world.

The year is 1872 and Alexander Turney Stewart’s vision for Garden City is well underway. Fast forward 150 years, to 2022, and The Garden City Historical Society (TGCHS) is in the midst of planning a birthday celebra tion for its museum building, one of the remaining A.T. Stewart-era Apostle Houses — a structure that was moved not once, but twice and is currently undergoing a top to bottom restoration. In honor of the 150th birthday, TGCHS is having a contest to build a three-dimensional model of any historic Garden City building. What better way to celebrate than to reflect on Stewart’s vision for Garden City and the histor ic buildings brought to life because of him — St. Paul’s School, The Cathedral School of St. Mary’s, The Cathedral of the Incarnation and the host of resi dential historic homes still standing? Maybe your house is celebrating its 150th birthday also! The rules are simple … stop by the A.T. Stewart Exchange (rear entrance of the A.T. Stewart Museum at 109 11th Street), pick up a 12”x 18” base for your model (your model must sit on the base provided) and get started. Use whatever medium you’d like to create your masterpiece: popsicle sticks, tooth picks, pasta shapes, build ing blocks, 3D printer, clay, maybe even gingerbread.Enterasan individual, a family or a team.Drop your masterpiece back off at The Exchange between October 10 – 14 for judging. Winners will be announced at the celebration on October 15 and prizes will be awarded! Remember to be creative and above all have fun!

When you walk into the Exchange, you will find lots of great, reasonably priced treasures. I often joke with customers that I am our best customer. But it’s hard to resist buying when we get so many great things in every week! In fact, many of the items that are consigned still have their tags on them. Come in and see for yourself.Iwant to remind you of our sum mer hours. Our Wednesday late night shopping hours have been suspended for the duration of the summer and will resume in September.

Over the past couple of weeks, I have focused on National Thrift Shop Day and the ABC’s of consigning. That being said, this week I’d like to talk about the new merchandise we pur chase and sell in the Shop. “What do you mean you sell new merchandise? But you’re a consignment shop.” These are frequent observations from many of our regular customers. Still others ask “Why does the Exchange do this when we have so many interesting, consigned items?” The answer is, I don’t think we have to be pigeon-holed as one or the other. Our shop is a blending of old and new – consigned and new merchandise. Why do we shop for you? Partly because these are items that would not typically get consigned, such as cock tail and luncheon napkins, and flour sac towels. We believe these items com pliment and add to anone’s home décor.

Another reason is if you look around the Village, there aren’t a lot of places left where you can buy gifts. We want to fill that gap. And partly because it’s fun to have new and interesting holiday items. Like all shops, we go where the other stores go to check out the new fun trends for the season … We go to the NY Gift Show in the City. Twice a year we make the pilgrim age into the Javits Center and scout out new things. Last week, Penny, my colleague, and I did just that. I can’t wait until we start getting in our new merchandise for the holidays. The fol lowing is a list of some of the new mer chandise we are getting in: Glycerin soaps with imbedded toys – what better way to encourage your kids to clean themselves while having fun. We have dogs, zoo animals and Christmas-themed coming in soon. Felted Christmas ornaments – fall and holiday wreaths (10”) and zooties (for babies) Knitted baby caps and pillows –adorable for Christmas Ladies’ wallets and credit card holders – these leather items come in fun colors for young and old. Birthday Bear jack in the box – and push-bottom collapsible robots. These are old-fashioned favorites. Men’s wallets, money clips, bottle openersChanel-design soaps shaped like handbags – for me, it’s the closest I will get to having a Chanel!

The Board of Trustees will a hold a public hearing on Thursday, September 15, 2022 beginning at 7:30 p.m. in the Village Hall Board Room and via Zoom regarding the closing of a portion of Euston Road to connect the islands on Main Avenue. The proposed conceptual site plan for Main Avenue/ Merillon Avenue station that was pre sented at the August 18, 2022 Board meeting is a schematic requiring fur ther study. Trustees have directed the Village Engineering Department to prepare construction drawings consistent with plans for traffic flow, emergency access and station lighting mitigation, including estimated con struction costs to implement the plan. Traffic flow is important and after careful review Police Commissioner Kenneth Jackson suggested removing two parking spaces from the concep tual plan to create a larger hatch (or “no parking”) area in order to elimi nate the possibility of double parking.

THE OFFICE

On August 19th Garden City Police received a report that a person’s identity was used to open unautho rized bank accounts. Computer scam After being locked out of her comput er security account, the victim called a phone number found on the internet and spoke with some one whom she thought was an agent of the security company. The agent instructed the victim to meet him at a nearby location and give him $3,000 to fix the issue. Then victim realized it was a scam and hung up.

“I have been here a long time and traffic was and still is a major issue. When we first went over the plans to have traffic calming studies, we knew some roads’ conditions were transfer able but then in the Mott section you’ll have winding roads to consider. I always have a lot of ideas of what to implement but the public input is always very important and with this study that is one of the factors,” Jackson said. When Deputy Mayor O’Brien asked the commissioner if the $94,750 would be money well-spent, Jackson said this study would result in a picture of what Garden City now has involved with its residential neighborhoods.

Board approves additional traffic calming studies of $94,750 from the Contingent account to the ‘Engineer - Contractual Services account.’Village Administrator Ralph V. Suozzi commented on the proposals for further professional traffic calming studies, which emanated from the orig inal Cathedral Avenue Road Diet study in the Central section. The Cathedral Avenue study was for a Nassau County-owned road while the Numbered Streets study covers the Central’s cross streets, which are owned by the Village of Garden City. The Satellite Study the board approved last week will involve neigh borhoods throughout Garden City. After Mayor Cosmo Veneziale asked about the items the study will cover, Suozzi explained that it will involve examination of Garden City’s network of roads. The traffic counts and pedes trian volume of the areas examined will be key. A few areas to highlight include the Mott Section in the village’s east and the West’s neighborhoods with local roads east of New Hyde Park Roads.

“The satellite study is an outgrowth of the Central section’s numbered streets traffic calming study. Originally Creighton Manning identified six dis tricts or areas where the neighborhoods had pedestrian-oriented characteristics around the local schools and parks. As with every traffic study to be per formed (Police) Commissioner Kenneth Jackson and I have read through the proposal with the commissioner’s extensive knowledge of traffic patterns through the community. With that, we added a seventh neighborhood for the Satellite Study as the commissioner is familiar with cut-throughs in the vil lage,” Suozzi explained. As a professional courtesy to other engineering firms, the Satellite Study proposal from Creighton Manning was sent to firms the village has worked with including Cameron Engineering of Woodbury. Suozzi reported to the board that Creighton Manning’s price was very competitive. One propos al from another firm was $7,000 less than Creighton Manning’s but Police Commissioner Jackson and Village Administrator Suozzi decided it was bet ter to go with the knowledge Creighton Manning has from its prior traffic stud ies in the village. The Satellite Studies of seven parts of Garden City will replicate the examina tion of the Central section’s Numbered Streets Study and look at possible road alterations.Trustee Bruce Torino said the pro posal from Creighton Manning was short, if not void, of recommendations for road alterations. He was searching for more in terms of the viable “propos al” to better outfit the roads of Garden City. He said he viewed the proposal as a summary of the metrics and number calculations that would be involved for different parts of the village instead of a solution-seeking outline. “If you look at a map of Garden City and one were to ask the consultants of the options possible, based on the layout of the village’s streets without doing any studies whatsoever, what would the solutions be….they are saying we want to do a study first and then tell you what to do. In this particular case my concern is the village has had traffic issues for years, and it has only gotten worse. The problem I have with the proposal is that it does not indicate where we would be at the end of the study and having paid nearly $100,000,” he commented. Torino said instead of there being an outsourced traffic engineering study, because traffic and speeding is a vil lage-wide problem, there should be a jump to the “end of the chapter in the book.”“We should ask the consultants to state, assuming there is traffic in an area, what would be the possible options in scenarios - 1, 2, 3 and 4. That way we would have an idea of where in fact we are going to go,” he said. Suozzi and Mayor Veneziale com mented on the varying conditions of Garden City’s roads from narrower roads to wide blocks, and the presence of stop signs or all-way stops at some intersections with no stop signs else where that pedestrians and families with children may be present.

“With their expertise and the study, in certain areas it may get to a point

Trustee Mary Carter Flanagan said the traffic calming study has compo nents for community comment, and Creighton Manning will seek residents’ input to learn what traffic calming mea sures would be well-received before they make recommendations for the village.“Traffic and in particular on the vil lage’s side streets (municipal roads) is the #1 complaint we have right now….I think community input will be really important to include early on to have a successful study. Another thing the Traffic Commission has talked about is for once we have the whole village studied in this way, I would like to see a master planning process and you can;t get to that unless you have all the areas studied,” Carter Flanagan said. She added that a focus on Garden City’s side streets is critical for the village since there is no Nassau County hurdle to get through, and the village has authority over all road conditions and can put policies in place.

Resident Bob Orosz, a member of the Finance Subcommittee on St. Paul’s said that his group can’t give cost sce narios until professional construction estimators give their analysis.

Board presses for timeline from St. Paul’s committee data from construction cost estimators that the Village has consulted.

“I think we might be able to do that,” Deveney replied.

“With the examinations through the Satellite Study the village can learn what treatments could be applied for increased safety – whether that involves bump-outs, narrowing of the road, or otherwise. The conditions have to fol low regulations as for instance you can’t put a speed hump or narrow the road at a driveway. And rather than go into some of the permanent infrastructure changes, we can begin with temporary changes on village roads – but we need to measure the need to put in road treat ments and the opportunities that exist,” the village administrator said.

Fishberg said that by law the Board of Trustees is responsible for making deci sions and can’t legally cede its authority to a binding vote on topics that aren’t specifically authorized by law.

“To Trustee Torino’s point there are certain things you can do for roads and some treatments for the Central section are transferable. But these seven areas may contain characteristics that favor one alternative or another,” he said. Deputy Mayor Tom O’Brien said he’s in total agreement with Mayor Veneziale that it’s time for Garden City to have an evaluation of the whole village’s traf fic patterns and concerns, not just a focus on the Central section. He then asked Garden City Police Commissioner Jackson for input on the proposal.

From page 1

“With the Satellite Study and the Numbered Streets evaluation for neigh borhoods in the Central section, for our residents we will be able to put together policies. If they have complaints for speeding on their block they know what the alternatives are,” she noted. Administrator Suozzi said for the $94,750 the cost of the traffic calming study is less compared with the Central section study, given economies of scale.

Ryan Mulrooney, chairman of the Finance Subcommitee, agreed that a timeline is needed, but that he had only learned about the proposed deadline on social media last week. He said it is very unlikely that the financial report will be done by September 30th.

Counsel Gary Fishberg replied that under state law certain words are terms of art that have specific meanings, and that referendums are only for certain types of actions such as dissolution of a village.

He was pressed by Trustees Lawrence Marciano and Bruce Torino about whether the Committee could come up with a timeline by the next Board of Trustees meeting on September 15th.

Building Superintendent Giovanniello said that the Village’s engineers came up with Requests for Proposals to cover both demolition of the building as well as scenarios involv ing recreational reuse.

Building Superintendent Giuseppe Giovanniello said that of seven Requests for Proposals put out by the Village, only three were returned. Two of the firms didn’t have the requisite expe rience with historic buildings, so only one useful proposal was received. He said the Village has asked additional construction estimator companies for proposals.Members of a group which advocates for demolition (FDEM) also commented at the meeting. Steve Gorray comment ed that things don’t get done without a schedule. He said that FDEM would like to have sufficient time to respond to the Mayor’s Committee once its report is finished.George Salem asked about a change in terminology that he had noticed. He said that months ago the Board had spoken of holding a “referendum” but now it is using the term “community vote” instead. He asked if the Board is shifting away from its promise to hold a binding referendum. He asked the Board members to reassure residents that the Board will honor the wishes of theVillagevoters.

“Let’s sit down and have a discus sion,” he Formersaid.mayor Brian Deveney, who is chairman of the St. Paul’s Committee, added, “We have no problem setting a date, provided that it’s a rational date.”

Robert Phil Schmidt

Robert (Bob) Phil Schmidt, 75, of Wynnewood, Pennsylvania, a life-long creative entrepreneur, and marketer, died August 20, 2022, from complications of heart failure at Lankenau Hospital. Born December 21, 1947, in Detroit, Michigan to Theodore (Ted) and Ida Schmidt (nee Dorman) after which he and his family moved to Milwaukee, Wisconsin where his father joined the family business. Bob graduated from Washington High School and then Marquette University majoring in Communications and Advertising. At age 20, Bob founded a success ful advertising agency in Milwaukee that engaged in notable marketing cam paigns for political candidates, finan cial, and retail food firms. His creative energy was boundless and his entrepre neurial initiatives flowed. While still in Milwaukee, he created the American “Thum Wrasslin” Association to foster the popularity of his table game, “Thum Wrasslin.” During this time Bob went on national tours demonstrating and conducting competitive meets. To his Wisconsin cousins, Bob was known and loved as “The Magician” because he was an accomplished teen age magician who entertained at their birthday parties. However, he never shared his tricks with them because as he said, “A magician never explains his tricks.”Inthe early 1970s, Bob relocated to New York City where he was employed by major advertising firms working for national clients in the financial services industry. While working in the advertis ing industry, he met and married Susan Richter in 1986, daughter of the adver tising legend Jack Richter.

Part One: Safe Driving Practices

GCPD: Back to School Safety Series

It’s that time of year again, summer vacation is almost over, and schools are reopening. With that in mind the Garden City Police Department has put together a four-part series of articles to address Back-to-School Safety Issues. Part One will address “Safe Driving Practices,” Part Two “School Bus Safety,” Part Three “Pedestrian and Bicyclist Safety” and Part Four “Stranger Danger.” When schools are opening in the morning and closing in the afternoon, the areas around schools are very busy and crowded. Parents and other adults can do much to improve traffic safety around our schools by driving cautious ly, teaching their children safe practic es and limiting vehicle trips. In some cases, parents and other adults may be the cause of safety concerns. Drivers should obey all traffic laws and apply the following safety practices.

• When dropping off or picking up children at school, avoid parking on the opposite side of the street from the school. If you must park on the oppo site side of the street, NEVER call your children to your car. Always meet them on the school side of the road and walk them to your car. Also talk with them about what to do if you are not there on time.• Make sure children are care ful opening car doors. Children should always get in and out of your vehicle through the rear curbside door.

“Safe Driving Practices”

PhotograPhy historyJohn Ellis Kordes The Kordes K orner This is a photograph I took in August of 2006. That cute little girl is Marlee Rich and she is posing with the “Garden City Horse” by the Gazebo. This was part of a series of photographs I was doing back then for the Village Annual Report. I’m not sure we even used this one but I always liked it. Marlee and her three sisters (the “Rich Girls”) were photographed many times by me when they were growing up. They all were very photogenic and today they must all be well into their 20s. I hope they are all doing well wherever they may be.

Motorists should keep in mind that young children usually see and hear dif ferently than adults. Children only have two-thirds the peripheral vision adults have and they have difficulty determin ing the source of a sound. They are still learning to judge distance and speed. When a car is coming toward them, they cannot accurately judge how fast it is traveling or how long it will take to cover the distance. Children generally focus on one thing at a time. If they are playing with friends or riding bikes it is unlikely they will be aware of your vehi cle. Children are spontaneous and have trouble stopping an action once started. Children also tend to overestimate their abilities, thinking they can run across a street before the light changes or a car approaches.Ifparents and other motorists make it a habit to incorporate these safe prac tices into their routines, the risk of inju ry or death to anyone in the school zone will be greatly reduced. The Garden City Police Department encourages everyone to read Part Two “School Bus Safety” in next week’s paper.

• Never leave a child of any age in a vehicle without adult supervision. A small child may rapidly suffer dehydra tion, heat exhaustion and consequent organ failure. Older children could play games that may lead to tragedy.

• Learn the traffic patterns at the schools to avoid being a disruption.

The Garden City Horse, by the way, is covered with images of Garden City painted by Garden City High School art students a long time ago. They used photographs of mine that I supplied as guides to paint those images.

• Drivers should not double park or block traffic. Parking or waiting in red zones such as disabled parking areas and no stopping zones is prohibit ed.• Do not block school buses or use areas designated for buses only.

• Do not violate the law by using the excuse “I’ll just be here for a min ute” when picking up or dropping off students.•U-turns are illegal within school zones. Avoid turning around in neighboring driveways. It is hard enough to see children and even harder when you are backing up or making U-turns.• When backing up from a drive way or garage, be aware that children may be walking or bicycling to or from a school or school bus.

Donald A. Marsden Donald Arthur Marsden, a long-time resident of Nassau County, New York, died in his home of cancer on August 20 in 2020. A gentle man of integrity, Marsden worked as a musician and writer, teacher and corporate executive. His interests ranged from chaos theory to bats, puppets, and parrots. A rare and careful individual, he remembered his friends’ birthdays and anniversaries. He celebrated his own last anniversa ry with high-school sweetheart Mary Martha Carroll, whom he wed the day after Christmas in 1966 at St. Mary’s, Amityville. Her death in 2004 was fol lowed by the passing of her mother Martha in 2009 and brother John in 2014.Both the Marsden and Carroll fam ilies resided in Amityville. Marsden was president and valedictorian of his 1960 class at Amityville Memorial High School and turned down a West Point appointment to enroll at Princeton University. There he majored in English and discovered his true pas sion: Triangle Club, a venue for devel oping undergraduates’ musical talent and playwriting. He wrote the his tory of Triangle, The Long Kickline, published in 1968 with an introduction by Joshua Logan. A Triangle trustee since 1991, he chaired the University’s Princetoniana Committee and served a four-year term on the executive com mittee of Princeton’s Alumni Council. For decades he interviewed local area applicants for admission to Princeton. Following graduate school at Johns Hopkins, Marsden taught English at Gettysburg College and at Adelphi University. In 1972 he joined Ulano, Inc., manufacturer of stencil materials for screen-process printing. He managed all facets of product development and conducted seminars on six continents. He was the only American invited to address China’s first international sym posium on screen-printing technology, served on the SGIA, SGCD, and SPTF and was recognized for significant con tributions by the IGAEA. His technical articles have been published worldwide. At retirement in 2017, he was Ulano’s director of commercial relations in ninetyMarsden’scountries.parallel career was in music, as an accompanist, choral director, and organist. He served for over two decades at St. Mark’s Church in Rockville Centre and before then at Christ’s First Presbyterian in Hempstead and at the Community Church of East Williston. He held the Colleague certificate of the American Guild of MarsdenOrganists.hadnochildren but a menag erie of dogs, cats, and birds including Lulu, Taffy, Asmina, Bozaluski, Buddy, Buster, Carlotta, Leroy, Magnolia, and Tosca. He spent summers in Stalker, PA, where he built a belfry for bats atop the 1888 Kellam’s Presbyterian Church. Wayne County Historical Society cred ited its restoration as “best adaptive reuse” for 2004. He attended St. James Church in Callicoon, NY. Two years ago amid Covid crises, The Reverend Randolph Geminder said a requiem mass for Donald at St. Mary’s Episcopal, where Marsden’s parents, Dorothy and Charles, had worshipped. This spring St. Mark’s congregants and colleagues celebrated his chosen life of “cartoons, comedies, and musicals” at a tribute which featured a trio of musicians and choristers singing in the church parlor. His ashes will be interred with those of his wife bur ied in Cutchogue, on land given to the Catholic church to establish the Sacred Heart Parish Cemetery. His mother-inlaw, Martha Mary nee Doroski, came from a large Polish family who had farmed there for decades. Marsden has donated to the Village a Bayview Avenue lot adjacent to the Carroll family home in Amityville. It will be used as a community garden in memory of his late wife. Most all of Marsden’s estate is earmarked for schools, churches, and charities. He would have turned 80 on August 28. Gayle Frances Evans, co-executor of Marsden’s will and a Smith College classmate of his late wife, penned this tribute.

A Touch of Trudy (8 September 1923 - 16 July 2022) As the wind sighs and the breeze blows,deep within the clouds there shows a drop of water somehow there, tattered... fallen... rent somewhere. A tear, of course, but not in play not on this heart-rending day. A tear of such sodden magnitude that much is forgiven, not intended to excludemorethan what has come before and meant so much, and so much more.She departs for loftier climes, ever a part of us... but, in future times,athought so sweet, a kiss so kind, a savored succulent on the mind. Trudy! The word, almost a prayer. Our dear Trudy... here... there... everywhere! Carol fromthepoetaroundthecornerAnderson@aol.com

Getting the news shouldn’t mean breaking the bank.

In a little more than ten weeks, Americans will go to the polls for the 2022 midterm elections. All 435 seats in the House of Representatives will be up, as well as 35 Senate seats (including special elections) and gov ernorships in 36 states.

While Republicans remain in a good position to make gains in the midterms, as the party not holding the White House usually does, their standing may have eroded a bit in recent weeks. For example, take the results of the generic ballot ques tion, which asks which party the respondent would vote for if the elec tion were held today. In the spring, Republicans typically had a 4 point lead over Democrats, but now the parties are exactly even. In a number of key Senate races Ike Pennsylvania and Arizona, the Democratic candi date has jumped out to a substantial leads, while Republicans are all out to hold leads in fairly friendly states like Ohio and North Carolina. There are a number of possible reasons for the improvement in the position of the Democrats. First, the news background is somewhat more favorable to President Biden. While the economic situation remains extremely uncer tain, at least the rate of inflation has not increased in the last month or two. The stock market, while jittery, has rebounded somewhat from its June lows. The war in Ukraine has somewhat receded from the head lines, putting a little less pressure on Mr. Biden to do something. And Mr. Biden has scored some limited successes, particularly in enlisting the support of Sen. Joseph Manchin in passing a scaled down climate and taxationSecond,bill. a number of recent important news developments have been unfavorable to Republicans. While overturning of the Roe v. Wade abortion decision, and returning the issue to the states, may have been good policy, electorates in many states retain pro-choice sympathies. This is illustrated by the recent ref erendum in Kansas, a pretty conser vative state, in which voters soundly rejected a measure that would have permitted the state legislature to out law abortion. In addition to being important to some swing voters, the emergence of the abortion issue has energized some Democratic voters not eager to talk about inflation. Third, Democrats may have become more pumped up by the activities of the House January 6 committee, which has had the oppor tunity to build a televised narrative concerning former President Trump with no effective Republican opposi tion. The recent raid on Mr. Trump's Mar-a-Lago property could produce a strong counter reaction among Republican voters, but that remains to beFourth,seen. in a number of races, Republicans have a candidate prob lem. In the Pennsylvania Senate race, Dr. Mehmet Oz, Mr. Trump’s choice for the nomination, is trail ing an opponent recovering from a severe stroke. Dr. Oz’s celebrity and changing positions are so far not playing well with voters. In Arizona, Democrats are portraying Trumpbacked Blake Masters as too extreme for the state. In Georgia, football hero Herschel Walker needs to brush up on the issues. What will likely happen? Republicans still seem like strong favorites to retake the House, which only requires a net flip of five seats. For a variety of reasons, largely centering around the dispersion of Republicans (but also some gerry mandering), Republicans are at an advantage even if the generic ballot is even. Most likely, too, there are large groups of voters inclined to send President Biden a strong mes sage about inflation. On the other hand, control of the Senate (currently evenly divided is up for grabs. If Dr. Oz cannot hold the GOP seat in Pennsylvania, the party will need to pick up a net two seats. Georgia and Arizona are obvi ous opportunities, but the candidates are not strong (although Mr. Walker easily could win). The GOP may have to hope for wins in seemingly second tier opportunities like Nevada and New Hampshire, while holding onto seats in North Carolina, Ohio and Wisconsin. This race is very hard to handicap.

In business, academics, government, etc. nothing happens without a timeline – even when an initial timeline must be amended, at least there is the sense of an obligation to respond timely. Several people last night urged accountability regarding a deadline – I couldn’t agree more. Jack Hartog Get back on track

neighbors and friends have undertak en the Herculean task of unraveling Gordian’s Knot. Even during this mael strom of differing opinions and criticism of this Committee on what they should or should not do they are continuing their efforts to solve what has been for decades an intractable problem. When the Committee’s final effort is presented to the residents and Board of Trustees I suspect there will be discord with whatever solutions the committee proposes. Accordingly, please hear my challenge, loud and clear to any person, group, or entity that believes there are solutions on what to do with St. Paul’s other than what is being proposed by the St. Paul’s committee. Do not sit by the sidelines and heckle. When this matter comes to the Board for a vote and should you stand at the podium to voice your objection, my first question is what did you do to bring this issue to closure. Words are hollow if not supported by actions. Thus I ask each person who knows better on what to do put some skin in the game and work up a viable option to present to the resi dents and Board. I for one will consider ALL OPTIONS, FROM ANY SOURCE. I will not abet any argument nor look favorably on any claimed option that “could have or should have” been con sidered but was not worked up and presented.Restassured that my vote on what to do with St. Paul’s will be solely based on what plan is best for the village, and that foremost in that calculus will be what is the sentiment of the residents as expressed by their upcoming vote .

City for so many years. I encourage everyone to stop invok ing the failure(s) of the past 30 years for framing this issue today and instead focus on determining course(s) of action to address the situation. Larry Marciano correctly asked “what tools do you need to get us to a timeline?” No one was able to provide a definitive answer. Instead, we got excuses and finger pointing. This would be unacceptable in every other conceivable scenario. Yes, the vol unteers are volunteers. But they also have an obligation regarding what they agreed to undertake. The committees were formed more than 10 months ago. Initially I par ticipated on the Programs and Uses Committee; my first meeting was during Dec 2021. The other committees were formed at the same time. Here we are ten months down the road and what do we have to show for it ? Perhaps an example of why we have no tangible progress or information to digest is on view when we learn that of the three ren ovation cost RFP’s that were sent out, two of them were discounted because they went to firms that do not specialize in working on historical buildings. So now, however many months later, the Village has to send RPF’s out to several other firms. With this keystone cops approach to St. Paul’s, it looks like the promised community vote will continue to be kicked down the road. Further, we were, for the first time, informed that, in fact, the Village can not hold a Village-wide ‘referendum’ because the BOT does not have the authority to cede its decision-making on this to the community. I looked this up when I got home and my shallow dive yielded that because NY is a non-ref erendum state, this statement by the Village attorney appears to be correct. This means that the most financially significant decision in Village history is in the hands of eight people and NOT to be determined by a Village-wide con sensus. THAT is quite the revelation! If there is ever a community vote, will it be of substance or merely window-dressing without the teeth of self-determination? It is more than astounding that this element is only now being mentioned…

Bruce A. Torino, Esq., Village Trustee, Inc. Village of Garden City Look at all the options

FABGC ExecutiveJohnCommittee:Cantwell Effie Neofitos Campbell Richard Corrao Jr. Kevin Kiely Donald MacLeod Timeline accountability To the LastEditor:night I attended to Board of Trustees meeting, which discussion revolved around, primarily, of course, St Pauls. Without suggesting wheth er I favor one option over another, I observe that almost no discussion about St Pauls takes place without referencing that this has been a 30 year problem so taking a few extra months is “sensibly cautious”. The constant reference to the 30 years is completely irrelevant to addressing this on a forward-going basis. If my doctor tells me that I have had problem for 30 years that is passing ly noteworthy but does nothing to cure me. My interest is in addressing the problem, NOT dwelling, and in the case of St Pauls seeking refuge, in the fact that this cancer has hung over Garden

To the SomeEditor:residents have expressed con cern that at a recent BOT (Board of Trustees) meeting, Village Counsel stat ed that “referendum” is not a legal term, and therefore the BOT should use the term “community vote.” It was then asked “Does this mean if there is a vote and it’s not what is desired by the majority of the BoT, it won’t be followed?”Wewould like to remind village resi dents that all the FABGC BOT members were asked, and committed to abide by the resident vote before running for their positions, whether it is referred to as a “referendum,” “binding refer endum” or “community vote.” We would certainly join with residents to find a replacement candidate for any BOT member that did not keep their word to the residents on this incredi bly important vote. Clearly, any BOT member that runs on a platform to “let the residents decide,” and then ignores the residents’ preference, or argues that the residents’ opinion after what is supposed to be a massive community outreach/educational program by this St. Paul’s Committee is subordinate to their “wisdom,” has broken his word to the community. If it was easy, or if any BOT was able to resolve this issue, the FABGC Platform would have left the decision to the BOT. We would also like to thank those individuals that are on the St. Paul’s Committee that continue to work and try to provide residents all reasonable choices in regards to the eventual dispo sition of the building. It is an emotional and complex issue, and clearly one of the largest decisions this Village will everFABGCmake. was formed to give the res idents choices and transparency. We were therefore, surprised, and disap pointed, to see that the most recent RFQ (Request for Quote) put out by the Village in regards to St. Paul’s was only for demolition and full develop ment. While we have no recommenda tion on how individual residents should vote, we were disappointed to see that a “façade-theatre-sports complex,” or other options such as keeping the facade or partial restoration were not being priced and given serious consider ation. Many residents feel other options deserve the same attention as the two options the St. Paul’s Committee seems to be exclusively focusing on. It is unfortunate that the biases of some in positions of leadership are not letting the residents have all reasonable choic es. We are disappointed in whoever worded, and approved, such a biased RFQ limiting the resident’s choices.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Email: Editor@GCNews.com

To the Editor: I would like to address Francine Ryan’s letter to her fellow St. Paul’s Committee Members and residents imploring them to come to the most recent Board of Trustee (BOT) meet ing. In addition, I attended, and have watched the video of the 8/18/2022 BOT meeting where Ms. Ryan addressed the Board of Trustees. I’d like to respectful ly disagree with Ms. Ryan. I have found the seven Board of Trustee Members to be amongst the most ethical people I have ever met in Garden City. Ms. Ryan’s charges in her letter that these seven BOT members are “disre spectful to the village residents”, “disre spectful to the St. Paul’s Committee” and she comments at the BOT meeting again calling the seven BOT members, “dis respectful” “rogues”, “arrogant” and “unethical” (under the guise of reading a “typical resident letter”) is totally at odds with every interaction I have had with these seven individuals over the last couple of years. Some of them, like Trustee O’Brien, I am honored to say I have known for decades. While Ms. Ryan is free to express her own opinion, it is clear she was expressing more than just her own opinion as she signed her letter “Francine Ryan, Member, The Mayor’s Committee on St. Paul’s”, not as an individual, but as a member of the Committee the Mayor put her on, and between the Mayor, two Committee Chairmen, at least five sub-committee Chairs (Finance, Programmatic Uses, Legal and Communication) and thirty or so Committee members, not a word of apology was offered to the seven BOT members. Not even a simple “I don’t agree with the sentiments my honor able friend Ms. Ryan just expressed”. Whether Ms. Ryan should resign from the St. Paul’s Committee or not, I’ll leave to others. I would however suggest that the St. Paul’s Committee acknowledge that the fate of St. Paul’s is not for the committee to decide, nor Ms. Ryan, but the residents to vote on after the BOT vets their information, a time consuming process, and creates an appropriate referendum/poll. Asking for a timeline, or as Trustee Marciano did, for a “timeline to get a timeline”, after eight months, does not make one “unethical, arrogant or disrespectful”. These are reasonable requests when dealing with the largest financial deci sion this Village has ever made. Going forward, I hope the St. Paul’s Committee will recognize that the seven BOT members have a fiduciary respon sibility to be informed, to receive time lines, to receive comparative analysis, to see financial projections, to under stand if the philanthropic efforts are reaching their goals, to receive writ ten and timely reports, etc. Obviously, there can be miscommunications over a topic we all care so much about. But, maybe as we reach this next phase of the analysis, members of the BOT should Chair the committee, increasing BOT-Committee communication, and reduce the number of participants from

Vianen, she says, calls itself a “free town,” by which I take to mean they are liber tarians, resistant to national author ity, like paying taxes, and not too welcoming to outsiders. “The city is proud of being a free town.” She points out other aspects of culture: “Dutch symmetry”. “People will have two of the same planters for symmetry/balance” and the tradition of keeping curtains open (so others can see how nice it is inside).

Bruges to Amsterdam by BoatBikeTours: The Windmills of Kinderdijk

Day 6 of our BoatBikeTours bike trip from Bruges to Amsterdam proves to be the absolute highlight (out of many) and not just for the iconic attractions (spoiler alert: wind mills!), but the serendipitous experi ences that are the essence of travel. We set out for this day’s ride, 35 miles from Dordrecht to Vianen, rid ing along a berm that looks down on the river where we can see our ship, the Princesse Royal, sailing along on the left while on the right, just behind a row of houses, we see windmills. We soon come to Kinderdijk, a UNESCO World Heritage site where you can see one of the best collections of these centuries old windmills (the name literally means children’s dike). I always thought of windmills as industrial engines to grind grain or saw wood, and windmills had that function in Holland as well, but in the mid-1700s, Holland used wind mills as pumps to drain water to cre ate farm land that otherwise would have been below sealevel. They began by reclaiming two huge patches of land with a system of canals, dykes and windmills to pump water out. Methods changed over time, with the addition of steam engines, electric pumps, that are in a race to take the water out of reclaimed land. But it is expected that this place will eventu ally succumb to the sea and be below sea level. (Like Venice, see the wind millsThenow!).Dutch have been building hydraulic works for the drainage of land for agriculture and settlement since the Middle Ages and have continued to the present day. And these windmills’ most critical task was the ongoing water drainage because 26 percent of The Netherlands is below sea level. Each year, 5 trillion gallons of water must be pumped out to avoid flooding the low-lying parts of the Netherlands.

Most villages have a main square. Vianen – being so independent, I guesshas a boulevard instead. Napoleon made a road from Paris to Amsterdam and armies and Napoleon came here (& Dordrecht) and drank red wine.At the Town Hall, Corrie explains that the ground does not support tall towers, and there is not a lot of stone to build with, so it is very prestigious to build with natural stone instead of brick. On the chimney on top of the Town Hall we see a stork nest – Corrie says the story that associates storks with deliver ing babies comes from Dutch tradition. On the outside of the apothecary, there is a bust of a taste tester “to show the medicine was safe.”

We’ve all heard plenty about our gut mi crobiome and how important it is to good health. What you may not have heard is that exercise may be as important as any probiotic to build a good gut microbiome. Just what is our microbiome? Our gut microbiota starts with birth and affects functions throughout the body. Literally trillions of bacteria live in our digestive tract and play an important role in our health. Of the thousands of species of gut microbes that live inside us, some are healthy -- and some areThenot.good gut bac teria break down food, response.andsity,beengutway,proves.bad,goodWhenourvitaminsmanufactureandtrainimmunesystem.wehavemorebacteriathanourhealthimInthesameimbalancesinbacteriahavelinkedtoobemooddisordersalteredimmuneWeknowabal anced, healthy diet that includes high-fi ber and fermented foods (sauerkraut, miso, kefir, kimchi, kombucha, yogurt) can help our gut bacteria thrive. Foods high in fiber -- like raspberries, arti chokes, green peas, broccoli, chickpeas, lentils, beans, whole grains, bananas and apples -- help good gut bacteria grow. Other helpful foods include chicory root, leeks, onions, garlic, asparagus, whole wheat, spinach, oats and soybeans. Two studies at the University of Illinois found evidence that exercise can change the composition of microbes in the gut. In the first study, scientists at the U of I and Mayo Clinic transplanted fecal material from exercised and sedentary mice into the colons of sedentary germ-free mice, which had been raised in a sterile facility and had no microbiota of their own. They found recipients of the exercised mouse microbiota had a higher proportion of microbes that produce butyrate, a shortchain fatty acid that promotes healthy in testinal cells, reduces inflammation and generates energy.

It takes 10 liters of milk to make 1 kilo of cheese.Webike along the River Vecht where there are number of houseboats – we are getting closer to Amsterdam. At Muiden, we take a bit of a detour to see Amsterdam Castle Muiderslot, one of the oldest and best preserved castles in the Netherlands. The castle was built around 1285 and has a long and turbulent history. It forms part of the Defense Line of Amsterdam and the New Dutch Waterline, both UNESCO World Heritage Sites. It has been a museum since 1878.The castle is sur rounded by gardens (muiderslot.nl). We set out again for Amsterdam, our end point, but the option to take the longer route is taken away because of concern for a severe rainstorm. We ride fast to get to the ship before the rain, meet the ship and sail into Amsterdam, where it is already raining. We are docked on the opposite shore from Amsterdam’s city center, but Amsterdam is so bike/pedestrian friendly, the city offers free ferries that runWeconstantly.literally step out of where the Princesse Royal is docked and walk a few steps to the ferry to Amsterdam’s Central Station and the historic city center. So I hop on one to go into the his toric center for a walk-about in the rain before our gala, farewell dinner.

Corrie and Arnold also help those who need to get a COVID test before trav eling back to the US make the appoint ment (an extremely efficient system from Spoedtest.nl in Amsterdam) and helping us organize for our departure. This is an ideal trip especially if you are traveling on your own, if you are new to biketouring, or with a family or just want a relaxing, incredibly scenic and interesting ride. The scheduling, route, itinerary, tours and excursions are excellent – and I especially love how our ship in most cases docks right at the town so we can walk off and visit.

Where the historic castle used to stand today there is a water tower – the first in Netherlands to be made of con crete – which turns out to be an icon of Vianen.Shealso points to a tree – the Queen Wilhelmia tree. “The House of Orange was depending upon one small girl to keep the house going – would she stay alive? Communities planted trees of hope. The House of Orange had one child – Queen Juliana – who had four daughters.” Breukelein Bridge In the morning of Day 7, our last day of cycling, our ship, the Princesse Royal, sails from Vianen to Breukelein, which I learn (most delightedly) that this is where the first settlers of Brooklyn came from. (Corrie jokes that it has its own Breukelen bridge; we stop at for photos). We will bike from here to Amsterdam (New York, you will remember, was originally New Amsterdam) – our last stop on our boat/bike tour. The path from Breukelein along the River Feckt that goes up to Amsterdam is gorgeous, dotted with literal mansions built by textile magnates. “400 years ago this was an important place- the wealthy from Utrecht and Amsterdam would flee the city in summer –heat, diseases - and built impressive summer houses,” Corrie tells us. They were built over a 400 year peri od and French destroyed many and many were replaced, so they have differ ent styles. Many have impressive gar dens and tea houses. It is reminiscent of Newport’s “cottages.”

But in translation, the word ‘beggar” or ‘begging’ was attached to him. “From then on, they called them selves ‘beggars’.” Hendrik was nick named the “Grote Geus” or the “big beggar”.“Eventually we got freedom of reli gion, after the 80-year revolt.”

Mr. Taylor had already noted dis appointedly that the president’s wife Jackie was not on the dais as she was in Paris visiting her sister. Then all the lights went out in Madison Square Garden except for a single brightly lit spot light that was focused on an area to my immediate left, and everyone fell silent for as with perfect timing, Marilyn Monroe stepped into that light and instantly filled it with the power of her sensual allure.

A California dancing troupe was the next act, moving into a “West Side Story” type of dance routines that con veyed the impression that “This is the Sixties” and we are moving forward with panache into a totally new sense of creative dancing reflective of our confi dence in this new age of promise. Peter Lawford clearly implied that we in the audience were the fortunate few to witness and share in the cer tainty that one of the reasons for our heady optimism was the presence of this vibrant president who was now poised to take us there. Then he came back to his emcee role, now assuming a sprightlier attitude as he got set to introduce a “special guest’ who was not listed in your playbills. He placed an emphasis on the word ‘not’ as if it was meant as ‘decidedly’ not. There was a pixyish smile on his face as if we were now all in on his little joke.

Eighteen months later, President Kennedy would be shot and killed in public view, witnessed by an entire nation while his wife, now suddenly liv ing and breathing in the midst of a hor rific nightmare, was reduced to fran tically scrambling over the back seat of a presidential limo to an unknown destination, to be anywhere but where she was in her fierce effort to flee from the gruesome scene of raw carnage the results of which were still occurring right in front of her. Jacqueline Kennedy had abandoned any sense of propriety in her effort to escape from the shock that came from a well-aimed shot from a far off window by a driven and deluded man who was trained by the United States Marine Corps to shoot straight. A vivid and unimaginable nightmare that the entire nation would share had suddenly become real. In retrospect, I realize why the black and white film of Marilyn Monroe sing ing “Happy Birthday” is so often shown on TV, as it is perhaps an ideal image of a time and place on public display that soon would be no more. Ironically, I would eventually see the entire evening as a final act, a last look at the end of yet another brief historic era; a separate and brief time unto itself. I would come to see the birthday event as being the calm before the fierce storm of the mid-sixties, rather than it being what the presenters had attempt ed to project: the dawning of a new age, one that was not to be for this president who in this moment in time seemed almostCertainlyimmortal.forme, it just might have been the very last moment I would feel so upliftingly optimistic about the future. This enticing lure and all that it projected was Camelot; those who later applied the term to the Kennedy admin istration got it exactly right. On our way home, back to Brooklyn and the Plaza Street station, there was a lot to talk about. The three of us were like old pals by the time we said our goodbyes and went our separate ways. But, like Camelot itself, I would never see Michael Taylor or his father again.

This is the second part of a two part story. The first part appeared in the August 19th issue of this newspaper. As we moved down a slight ramp that led to our new seats, I saw Peter Lawford, the president’s brother-in-law who acted as the emcee in front of the microphone. With his casual manner of introduction, he created the impres sion that the audience was not merely attending a formal political event, but more that we were all there to have a goodAftertime.a few words of welcome that I thought sincere, he introduced Jimmy Durante as the opening act. At first, I thought this an odd choice since Durante was a voice from the past, as opposed to the general theme of the eve ning’s agenda which was clearly futur istic in its theme of our coming into a new age of promise. Jimmy Durante was funny in much the same way that I thought Jackie Gleason was, both of them being biggerthan-life personalities who were enter taining without giving the appearance of saying practiced lines written by others, but simply by seeming to be themselves. I felt like Jimmy Durante was one of us and he seemed genuinely happy to be there. Maybe Durante was there for con trast I thought. I recalled reading that he was one of the entertainers who played a piano in a Coney Island dance hall back in the early decades, and would have lived through the Depression years during his heyday on radio and in Hollywood. Everything that occurred prior to the onset of the Second World War seemed so much further back in time than it actually was, almost as if the nineteen twenties and thirties were in a different centu ry. Durante, whose presence I enjoyed, reminded me of a neighborhood guy who made good, so I was very receptive to his distinctive style.

In a flash, the atmosphere in the arena completely changed. After a moment to let everyone take it all in, a moment wherein her presence was as effective in stilling the crowd as was Brother Edward’s whistle in St. Teresa’s schoolyard, Marilyn Monroe’s presence completely silenced the crowd into a frozen state of awed compliance. She then slowly slinked her way up toward the dais taking her time, noticeably conscious of her lurid sexual capacity to entice. The single spotlight followed Marilyn Monroe who was enlaced in a sparkling, clinging gown that I later read had to be sewn on as she stood, a gown that with its shimmery glitter at first gave me a hopeful first impression that she had decided to appear stark naked. Suddenly the event had all the trappings of a Bachelor Party. Marilyn Monroe eventually did come up to the microphone in a manner that perhaps only Cleopatra might have got ten away with, literally taking every one’s breath away. She seemed like a new kind of creature, so remarkable in her appeal that I don’t recall hear ing a sound of applause when she first appeared as much as an aura of stunned silence that lingered from a rapt audi ence, who in their shocked condition, managed in their moment of rapture to completely lose control of their vocal chords.When she breathlessly sang her now-famous “Happy Birthday” song, Marilyn Monroe was right in front of me.Here I am I thought, living in a brand new world primed for a glorious future, full of glitter and promise. I knew that I was not alone with this thought. I am sure that the Greeks have a word for such feelings, and furthermore, how such optimistic undertakings are gener ally punished by the vengeful gods who are always on the alert to recognize the overreach of such hubris upon the part of mere Futuremortals.events would seem to sup port this assumption, as three months later Marilyn Monroe would choose to die by her own hand, her untimely death splayed across the front pages of newspapers across the world, spewing random commentary on how her glam orous life style might have led her to this anguished and bitter end. I was conflicted as I stared at her picture on the front page of the Daily News, a picture taken from their file that showed her in an unattractive light, looking like a normal person who had that just woken up look as some report er had put it, a person who evidently had deep-seated unresolved problems. A person, who as the reporter further noted, could not get a restful night’s sleep. I dismissed that picture from my recollection preferring to always see her in her full dimension at that singu lar moment and place in time.

BY TOM MARGENAU I don’t know how you folks get by with out being scared out of your wits by mis leading Social Security stories you read in newspapers or see online. Because I know the subject so well and because I can de cipher the confusing and sometimes scary Social Security-related muck that’s out there, it doesn’t bother me. But I can see where a Social Security layperson could get worried or fooled by so much of what you see in print or online. Just last week, I wrote a column in which I tried to clarify the points made in a column that had this headline: “Social Security Mistakes That Could Cost You a Fortune.” Almost all the information in that column was rather mundane stuff that most people already know. And even not knowing them wouldn’t have led to a series of fortune-costing mistakes. And just a couple hours after I sub mitted that column to my editors, I was reading the online version of a major na tional newspaper and saw this headline: “Attention seniors: 4 big Social Security changes coming in 2023.” When I first read that headline, even I kind of panicked. I thought: “Oh my gosh! I always stay on top of this Social Security stuff. And I haven’t heard anything about Congress making any big Social Securi ty changes that would go into effect next year!” So, I could only imagine the confu sion and maybe the anxiety such a head line could cause most retirees. But then I opened the story and read it. And guess what? These “big changes” are just routine updates that happen to the Social Security program every year. So, why the provocative and misleading headline? In some ways, I get it. If the newspaper had used the headline, “Rou tine and boring Social Security updates for 2023” -- well, no one would have read that story. But the attention-grabbing “big changes” headline draws people (in cluding me) in. It does work. But it is still misleading.So,what are the “big changes” up coming in 2023? Of course, first, there will be the annual cost-of-living-adjust ment (COLA) in January. And because inflation has been running high, the next COLA will also be high. It’s supposed to be around the 10% mark. Instead of just announcing the up coming COLA, this national newspaper could have done their readers a real service and answered the question ev eryone is asking me. And that question usually goes something like this: “I was planning to wait until I reach my full re tirement age later in 2023 to file for my Social Security. But I want to get the ben efits of this projected big COLA. So, do I have to file for reduced early benefits in 2022 in order to get the 10% increase in my benefits in early 2023?” And the answer is no. If you aren’t getting benefits when the COLA comes out (i.e., in January 2023), the same

YOUR SOCIAL SECURITY

COLA increase is built into the Social Se curity benefit formula for future Social Security recipients. The next “big change” the newspaper hyped is the routine and annual increase in the wage base -- the amount of income subject to the Social Security payroll tax. That limit is $147,000 this year and will automatically go up next year (based on increases in the average national wage) -- as it has gone up every year for the past 30 years or so. Of course, this change doesn’t affect most people reading this column. It only affects those who are still working and making more than $147,000 per year. So, if you’re in that boat, I suppose you could classify this as a “big change.” But it is absolutely not a surprise or an unexpect ed change.Thethird “big change” the newspaper story talked about is the increase in the re tirement age. I mean, c’mon: is this news?

Headline Answers on page 2

Absolutely not. The law increasing the retirement age from 65 to 67 was passed in 1984. And it’s been gradually phased in over the past 40 years. We have reached the point now where the retirement age is 66 and 6 months for people born in 1957, and those folks will be reaching that “full retirement age” in 2023. But I challenge the editors of that newspaper to find me one reader and potential retiree born in 1957 who didn’t know that was his or her full retirement age. And finally, the fourth “big change” is the increase in the earnings penalty limits for Social Security recipients un der their full retirement age who might be working part time. The limit is cur rently $19,560. For every two dollars you earn over that limit, one dollar is with held from your Social Security benefits. But once again, the update to the limit is an automatic increase that has happened every year for the past 30 years or so. It’s not a big deal. It’s not a big change. And frankly, it’s just not news.

And speaking of misleading Social Se curity-related “news” stories, sometimes they are so downright silly that I hope most of my readers can understand that they are totally bogus. For example, there were lots of re ports -- all from the same questionable source -- on the day I’m writing this (in early August) that carried headlines sim ilar to this one I saw: “Biden authorizes border patrol agents to hand out Social Security cards to ‘illegal immigrants’ crossing the Mexican border.” Oh, yeah. And did you know agents are also giving undocumented workers a Wells Fargo Visa card, inter est-free mortgage loans, a new car and a box of chocolates? I mean, c’mon folks, get real. This isn’t happening, and I hope all my readers are smart enough to real ize Ithat.know some folks like to think of the federal government as this one huge, monolithic entity in which all employees are just cookie-cutter bureaucrats fol lowing the mantra of an appointed lead er. That’s just not how it works. There are hundreds of federal agencies, each with their own staff and with their own mis sion. For example, you obviously would not go to the Department of Agriculture to file your federal tax return; you would go to the Internal Revenue Service. You would not go to the FBI to try to get a na tional park pass; you would go to the Na tional Park Service. And you would not go to the U.S. Customs and Border Pa trol to get a Social Security number; you would go to the Social Security Adminis tration. (And by the way, if you entered this country illegally and you tried to get a Social Security card from the SSA, you simply wouldn’t get one!) If you have a Social Security question, Tom Margenau has a book with all the answers. It’s called “Social Security: Sim ple and Smart.” You can find the book at www.creators.com/books, or look for it on Amazon or other book outlets.

A: Knowing when to refrigerate nut butters can be tricky. Your best bet is to read the label. If it says “refrigerate after opening,” you need to do that. If you buy all-natural peanut butter, you’ll want to store jars in the refrigerator. Processed brands of peanut butter are made to have a long shelf life, thanks to the addition of stabilizers like palm oil and hydroge nated oils, so once opened, they’re fine to store in a cool, dry cupboard. The Na tional Peanut Board says opened jars of commercial processed peanut butter can be stored in a cupboard for two to three months. After that, they recommend stor ing jars in the refrigerator, which extends shelf life by another three to four months. Unopened jars will last six to nine months in the pantry; however, be sure to check expiration dates.

With the increase in mortgage interest rates over the last 8 months, properties are not necessarily selling as quickly as they were in the past. Although rates are down the last 4 weeks and just last week slipped again from 5.59% to 5.55% as of August 3rd. Rates are usually pegged to the 10-year Treasury, but the markets generally are the true determiner of rates. They are still considerably higher than the historically lowest rate of 2.5% late in 2021 for a 30-year fixed mortgage. With the current doubling of rates the price of homes has become unaffordable for a vast majority of many consumers local ly and across the U.S. Even though rates are still historically lower and incomes have increased, (but purchas ing power has stayed the same for the majority factoring in inflation over the last 40 years as per Pew Research Center). More importantly, the actual purchase price is far greater and in some cases as much as 5-10 times high er than they were in 2000. To provide some perspective, the median price of a home in New York in 1940 was $45,700, in 1980 it was $90,300 and in 2000 it was $148,700. In the past and present, inflation has always been caused by the Fed with easy money, causing budget deficits, Nixon taking the U.S off of a Gold Standard, turning us into a fiat currency, and Keynesian economic policy and market psycholo gy, during the 1970s. Looking around your local neigh borhoods and you can verify and see how high the prices are today and have truly stretched the pocketbooks of many who have left the market. They are staying put in a rental or rel ative’s home for the time being to wait for either rates to further decrease, saving for a larger downpayment, or prices to ease and stabilize. Due to the severe lack of inventory on Long Island and the tri-state areas, prices won’t be crashing anytime soon. However, I think we will be heading into a more normalized and hopeful ly balanced demand is still fairly strong if your home is priced accordingly for those who have the income, credit, and down payment to purchase. I believe it will take several years for housing inventory to become normal again and that will depend on those who are real sellers and decide to put their homes on the market as well as on developers building more homes. Median prices of sold homes in June were $720,000 up 11.80% compared with June 2021 when the price was $644,000. In Nassau County, there were 1,261 closed sales transactions and 1,250 pending transactions reported in June 2022, following 1,146 closed and 1,242 pending transactions reported in May 2022. The OneKey MLS Regional Area, covering all areas, Nassau, Suffolk, Queens, and the 5 Boroughs of NYC and a portion upstate New York, reported a closed median sale price of $615,000 in June 2022, representing a 7.90% increase as compared to the reported $570,000 in June 2021. Across the regional coverage area, there were 6,056 closed residential sales reported in June 2022, which is 15.80% more closed transactions than the 5,230 reported the month prior. Banks are tending to become a bit more conservative in their appraisals, so what has sold in the last 3-6 months, may be adjusted based on future anal ysis of the market going forward. Just because you see information on the major sites, don’t get fooled by think ing that is what you will receive when finally decid ing to sell. No one from those sites has seen your home inside and the pric es provided give a broad view of prices in a general locality. Zillow had got ten stuck with 1000 homes from overpaying through their IBuying model; as no one visited the homes and they just made offers, site on seen. They lost $230,000,000 + and laid off 25% of their staff in 2021; so I guess their Zestimate in pricing homes isn’t a very accurate tool to be relied upon. They are no longer in the house buying market. One can always rely on our local MLS as the number one most accu rate and trusted source for information to make a clearer and more concise determination of what is occurring in our local Nassau, Suffolk, Queens, and other areas of the NYC and 5 Borough markets. Analysis and prices are very clear when determining what is hap pening. So pricing your home is more accurately accomplished when using the MLS statistics and not through the Zestimate model as it lost them a sub stantial amount of money!

Early astronomers noticed that, during the late summer, the brilliant star Sirius rose around the same time as the sun (its “heliacal rising,” as we know it today), and the two moved across the daytime sky together.

Sept. 3,

Early sky watchers kept watch on the heavens to try to correlate terres trial and celestial activity, and they noticed that, during this brutally hot season, the brilliant star Sirius rose around the same time as the sun (its “heliacal rising,” as we know it today), and the two moved across the daytime skySiriustogether.is well known as the “Dog Star” because it marks the constella tion Canis Major, the Great Dog. And many in olden times believed that it was the heat of brilliant Sirius, coupled with that of the sun, that produced the scorching summertime temperatures -- the “caniculares dies” or “dog days” as the Romans called them. Over time, the link between the late summer heat and the Dog Star -- and the phrase “dog days” -- became ingrained into popular culture.Granted, Sirius is nearly twice as hot as our sun but, at a distance of some 51 trillion miles, the heat we receive from it is negligible. However, such ideas die hard; in fact, I wouldn’t be surprised if some people still believe its connection today, despite it being debunked more than 20 centuries ago by the Greek astronomer Geminus: “It is generally believed that Sirius produces the heat of the Dog Days,” he wrote, “but this is an error, for the star merely marks a season of the year when the Sun’s heat is the greatest.” Nowadays, if you wish to watch the heliacal rising of Sirius, you must do so in August. This is because the Earth wobbles on its axis -- an effect called precession -- and over several millen

“We have company,” I said to my husand.“Are they at the door?” he wondered. “No, they’re on the lawn,” I replied. I pointed out the window to the area down by the lakefront. Fanned out across the grass were two dozen Canada geese happily munching on our lush, green lawn. My husband growled, grabbed a pot and a metal spoon and went running down to the lake, banging on the pot like a lunatic to scare the geese away. But apparently, they knew he was all bang and no bite, and they simply strolled a little farther down the lawn away from the madman with the metal drum. It’s not that we don’t like to commne with nature. We had moved onto a lake, after all. But the geese didn’t want to commune. They want ed to eat grass and poop all over our lawn. One goose, maybe two we would accommodate. But an army of geese was not welcome. They were like your worst neighbor nightmare. They came over uninvited, made a lot of noise and left a big mess. It was, quite literally, Poopmageddon.Ilookedback outside and saw that my husband had finally succeeded in getting the geese to fly the coop. But when he returned, I could tell he’d had enough of these particular scare tactics. “Honey, I need your help with this,” he said. “You’re really good at finding solutions to things. Can you take over this goose thing and figure out how we can get rid of them for good?” “Yes!” I said emphatically. “I will take this on. I will become Commander of the Goose Droppings!” He stared at me. “Whatever,” he finally said. “Just find a way to get rid of the geese.” I wondered, at that moment, not why I had decided so enthusiastically to volunteer to take over this impossible project, but why I was limiting myself to the title of commander. It was a big responsibility, and I thought I should at least appoint myself a general or even an admiral. “Goose Admiral” had a much more authoritative ring to it than “commander.” Certainly, it would com mand the respect of anyone who heard it, even though the geese wouldn’t prob ably give two honks. Regardless of what I called myself, I still had the problem of getting rid of the geese. I asked around, but no one else seemed to have a good solution, so I perused the internet and found a com pany called Goose-Be-Gone. It sounded promising.“Hi,this is Tracy Beckerman,” I said on the phone. “I’m the Goose Admiral, and I’m looking for help getting rid of some geese on our property.” “You’re the what?” said the guy on the other end. “The Goose Admiral. I’m in charge of getting rid of our geese.” He laughed. I frowned. It wasn’t quite the respectful reaction I was look ing“Well,for. “Well,“Admiral,”General...”Iinterrupted.Admiral,Ihave an army I can give you to help you with your mis sion,” he said. “What kind of army?” I asked. “They are an army of trained border collies that will chase, harass and work to keep geese off your property.” “Sounds great! How does it work?” I wondered.“Wedo randomly scheduled daily dog service visits until the geese learn that the area is not safe.” “How long does it take?” “Several weeks or months.” “Wow! That’s a long time!” I exclaimed. “Oh, wait. Now I see why it works.”“Why’s that?” he said. “After a few months, the geese fly south for the winter.” Tracy Beckerman is the author of the Amazon Bestseller “Barking at the Moon: A Story of Life, Love, and Kibble,” available on Amazon and Barnes and Noble online!

Dog Days of Summer Week of Aug. 28 -- 2022 As summers go, this one hasn’t been unusually hot here in the Southern California desert, but it’s not over yet! We’ve still got a while before the onset of autumn and, hopefully, the arrival of some cooler temperatures. In the meantime, however, pay close attention and I’ll bet you’ll hear some one refer to this time of year as the “dog days of summer.” One might guess that the term comes from the seemingly lethargic behavior of our canine com panions in the late-summer heat... but then one would be barking up the wrong tree.No, its origin -- like that of many everyday phrases -- lies among the stars.

The ancients, particularly the Romans and Greeks, knew late sum mer not only for its sweltering heat but also for the disease and discomfort that accompanied it. It was a time when meat spoiled rapidly, and food poison ing could become widespread.

CREATORS LOST IN SUBURBIA Commander

nia, the positions of celestial objects shift slightly. But if we could see stars in broad daylight, we could now enjoy those of winter -- including brilliant Sirius -- shining all day long. Of course, if you’d like to see Sirius in a dark sky, you’ll have to wait a few months until the sun no longer appears in the same part of the sky. That occurs during the winter months and, when it does, Sirius will appear as a sparkling diamond rising in the east at sunset. With or without Sirius in our sky, summertime is hot. So, enjoy the warmth while it lasts because, as sure as you’re reading my words, we’ll all soon be whining about the cold! Visit Dennis Mammana at dennis mammana.com.

They may arrive at that, and at times you will hear what you want to and other times you won’t,” Jackson told the board.He noted that the proposal will cover side street issues which are difficult for GCPD traffic enforcement to get to. Another factor he spoke of is the consistency among traf fic situations discussed by police chiefs across Nassau County – every jurisdiction carries the same complaint, and Nassau County PD as well as state troopers are aware of the many traffic and speeding worries.Commissioner Jackson also told the Board of Trustees about New York State’s Speed Awareness Week in mid-Au gust for GCPD traffic enforce ment, and with late summer and the start of the school year the department was proud to announce grant money cover ing the increased ticketing.

To the Editor: Over 65% of our national population has doubts about our present voting system. To regain voters’ trust, we need to junk all electronic voting machines— which house manipulative software— prior to the forthcoming November election. I wrote about this issue on March 21 of last year. Now, this has become more important than ever. Let me reiterate what is at stake: To assure accurate voting results in the future, we need to go back to our former voting system. Voting in per son and absentee voting are the only answer! In both cases, there must be voterThereverification.mustbe NO MORE foreign voting machines with dubious software and NO MORE mail-in voting! If we will not end the current voting practices it will open the door to massive irregular ities and fraud. Why can’t we submit our vote into a machine by simply switch ing aNotlever?doing so will eventually lead to a one-party set-up and it will be the end of our well-respected democracy. The time is now to make the Heinzchanges!Mayer

6. CONSEQUENCES OF FAILURE TO FILE A CLAIM ANY HOLDER OF AN ASA SEXUAL ABUSE CLAIM THAT FAILS TO TIMELY FILE A PROOF OF CLAIM IN THE APPROPRIATE FORM SHALL NOT BE TREATED AS A CREDITOR WITH RESPECT TO SUCH CLAIM FOR THE PURPOSES OF VOTING ON ANY PLAN OF REORGANIZATION FILED IN THIS CASE AND PARTICIPATING IN ANY DISTRIBUTION IN THE DEBTOR’S CASES ON ACCOUNT OF SUCH CLAIM.

5. CLAIMS FOR WHICH ASA SEXUAL ABUSE PROOFS OF CLAIM NEED NOT BE FILED A person need not file an ASA Sexual Abuse Proof of Claim Form if you have previously submitted such claim in this chapter 11 case in accordance with the Bar Date Order. ASA Sexual Abuse Proof of Claim Forms are for individuals that may have claims against the Debtor that have been revived pursuant to the Adult Survivors Act. ASA Sexual Abuse Proof of Claim Forms are specifically for individuals that have claims as a result of conduct that occurred when they were 18 years of age or older.

an unworkable thirty-eight individuals as John Sullivan recommended. Those that have spent eight months, and some that have spent years if not decades trying to help resolve this enormous and complex issue, should be honored and commended. As should the seven BOT members that each committed their time, and to a platform of tackling this issue, analyzing the data, creating a fair and unbiased referendum/poll, and then implementing the residents will. But at the end of the day, if a Village Committee continues to be dysfunction al, Mayoral or otherwise, it is the BOT that has the obligation and responsibili ty to get it back on track. The BOT can not shirk its responsibility because the Mayor set up a Committee that should have had multiple BOT members on it from day one.

Reopen 6th Street

To the Editor: My family and I live in the Adelphi section of Garden City. The Village of Garden City has had the road connect ing Cherry Valley Ave to Cathedral Ave closed for months at this point. Not only is this a major inconvenience for the taxpayers of Garden City, it diverts traffic to the Garden City Middle School endangering the students and staff of the school crossing those streets. The traffic in that area on a school day was already chaotic, now that you have eliminated a vital road that will increas es the traffic in that school zone and will be even worse once the Middle School reopens next week. On behalf of my family and my Garden City neighbors, please repair the potholes and reopen the road immediately. This road being closed for months is certainly not “For A Better Garden City.” John Clifford Terminate electronic voting machines

Under section 101(5) of the Bankruptcy Code and as used in this notice, the word “claim” means a right to (a) payment, whether or not such right is reduced to judgment, liquidated, unliquidated, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, legal, equitable, secured, or unsecured; or (b) a right to an equitable remedy for breach of performance if such breach gives rise to a right to payment, whether or not such right to an equitable remedy is reduced to judgment, fixed, contingent, matured, unmatured, disputed, undisputed, secured, or unsecured.

• Sexual abuse includes behavior between an adult and an adult without regard to whether such activity involved explicit force, whether such activity involved genital or other physical contact, and whether the individual associated the abuse with any physical, psychological, or emotional harm.

THE MAYOR’S UPDATE cveneziale@gardencityny.net Inc. will replace the HVAC system for $117,500. These projects will be paid with American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding. In late July, the Village received its second payment ($1,151,484) of relief funding through ARPA, a $1.9 trillion relief bill signed into law in March of 2021. The stimulus package provides bil lions of dollars in direct financial relief for state and local governments, includ ing $65 billion for America’s cities, vil lages and towns, as well as $65 billion for counties. Garden City has received a total of $2.303 million in COVID relief funding (an estimated $110 per capita). The funding was delivered in tranch es; the first half was received in July 2021. Unlike FEMA funding, the relief will arrive before the Village reports how the funding is being used. Use of funds has recently been expanded to now include any COVID-related rev enue losses as well as water, sewer and broadband infrastructure improve ments. Treasurer Irene Woo said Finance Department staff is reviewing the voluminous guidelines distributed by the United States Department of the Treasury. The Board will continue to review projects and direct those funds as they see fit within the guidelines. To date, the Board of Trustees has allocat ed $815,000 of the ARPA funds on three capital improvement projects, includ ing the Pool Vinyl Liner replacement project.

Annika Margolies, Samuel Chan and Augustin Mingoia Murphy at Piazza della Signoria after their performance at the Florence International Festival of Youth Orchestras.

Annika Margolies (violin), Samuel Chan (viola) and Augustin Mingoia Murphy (principal trombone), all stu dents at Garden City High School, auditioned earlier in the year and were selected for the Chamber Orchestra of the Metropolitan Youth Orchestra of New York (MYO) which participated in the 23rd Annual International Festival of Youth Orchestras in Italy. The three Garden City students diligently began rehearsing independently in the spring and with the entire Tour Orchestra the week of June 27. They rehearsed Monday through Friday from 9 a.m.–5 p.m. in Manhasset, and performed one concert before departing for Italy on July 6. Annika, Sam and Augustin performed in a remarkable concert tour in 5 cities over a two-week sojourn. Their first performance took place at Villa Tigullio in Rapallo on the Italian Riviera, followed by performances in glorious outdoor and indoor venues at Loggia dei Lanzi in Florence; Terme Tettuccio in Montecatini; Cattedrale di Sorrento; and Chiesa Sant‘Ignazio Loyola in the Eternal City of Rome. The approximately 2-hour long con certs, which included an opener by the MYO Tour Brass Quintet, followed by the MYO Tour Choir and con cluded with the MYO Tour Chamber Orchestra, were well received by the large audiences made up of local families who traditionally attend the Music Festival as well as tourists visiting those cities. The orchestra’s repertoire included: Die Fledermaus Overture, Strauss; Cello Concerto in E Minor Op 85, Elgar; Intermezzo from Cavalleria Rusticana, Mascagni; Capriccio Espagnol Op 34, RimskyKorsakov; and Va Pensiero, Verdi. The finale was a joint performance by both the orchestra and the choir who were meticulously prepared, precise, secure and emotionally involved. The audience was invited to sing along during the finale, and inevitably joined in as Va Pensiero is considered a hymn in support of Italian culture and patriotism by the Italians. The unique musical experience included educational components such as a lecture and workshop at The Stradivarius Museum in Cremona, sightseeing, boat excursions, encoun ters and exchanges with other youth orchestras from Europe, and a once in a lifetime opportunity for the Tour Choir to perform at St. Peter’s Basilica in Vatican City. At the farewell dinner in Rome, the Orchestra and Choir conductors, Mr. Scott Stickley and Ms. Louise O’Hanlon respectively, noted the growth in musicianship of all the student performers during the threeweek period spent together rehears ing, performing and making music. Ms. O’Hanlon highlighted some of the special moments on stage and remind ed the performers that those special moments are “moments that you can’t recreate.” Mr. Stickley stressed that the Chamber Orchestra’s stellar per formance at the culminating concert of the Italy Tour was a highlight of his musicalAugustincareer.Mingoia Murphy was the Principal Trombone of the Concert Orchestra during MYO’s 2021-2022 season, and he will be joining MYO’s Symphony Orchestra as well as the Wind Symphony of Nassau Suffolk Performing Arts in 2022–2023. He is a member of the the Garden City High School Wind Ensemble and Jazz Ensemble. He began to play the trom bone in 4th grade and the piano at the age of 5. He was in All-County Band in 2020. He has been participating in NYSSMA Festivals since 5th grade receiving perfect and outstanding scores and competed in All State in the spring. He has participated in music programs such as The International Trombone Festival and most recently, The Eastman Trombone Institute.
